This is just a quick email to say thanks for all of the info and events that you send me and although I am not always able to attend I do appreciated the up dates about what is going on. Every time I do get to attend I am more than happy to witness the talents of you and the other poets, singers and rappers. I sit back and allow my being to be cleansed by all of the knowledge and vibes in the room. I hope I will be able to become more involved in these events and performances in the future." Makeda "V.O.I.C.Express is an intimate night of creative energy that has a mixture of familiar faces as well as amazing new talent. It is wonderful to see how the younger generation are dispelling negative stereotypes by expressing themselves in this productive environment. V.O.I.C.Express is the place to be as artists feel free to express their creativity in this homelyenvironment."
